In his sketchbook, Cyrus Highsmith experimented, developing a sanserif version of his slabserif Dispatch. As he drew strokes and counters, he realized that he had an original family with its own strong character, not just a sanserif partner for Dispatch. Art Director David Schlow chose Stainless for Premiere magazine; Highsmith designed three display weights: Ultra Thin, Thin, and Ultra Light; the italics were added later; FB 2002–07
